Berks County has established a policy for funding local planning with CDBG funds that implements the principles defined in the Berks County Comprehensive Plan Revision. A major objective is to promote joint municipal planning, intergovernmental and regional cooperation. As a result, the County initiated a Local Planning Partnership Fund, to fund the preparation of local comprehensive plans for municipalities that engage in joint planning efforts. The Leesport Borough, Ontelaunee Township and Perry Township Joint Comprehensive Plan is the fifth joint plan to be funded under this policy. The County commends municipal officials of Leesport Borough, Ontelaunee Township and Perry Township, as well as the joint committee members, for their participation in this program.
